Something looks different

Something looks a little bigger on this Tikka long action

Anyone have a guess

Looks like a large bore, it will be neat to see what you ended up doing

 

[Oldtrader3]

Is it 9.3mm?

 

[orchemo]

Something done here in Oregon that many on this forum will appreciate

 

[muleman]

What did you bore it to?
Scott

 

[Oldtrader3]

.35 Whelen?

 

[orchemo]

Sent the rifle down to JES less than 2 weeks ago. Got I back Friday

Now it is a Tikka T3 - 35 Whelen

I have a couple Rem 700 but want a Tikka Whelen. Will take to the range next week and start to break in the new bore

Can't wait to here how she shoots. What twist and grove did you go with? Got a M70 I might turn into an 35 AI.

 

[SJB358]

Very nice Eric!

 

[wvchevy3]

Nice... cant wait to see how she shoots.Lee

 

[FOTIS]

Man a Tikka in 35 W! Awesome.

 

[pre6422hornet]

Sweeeeeet!

The more I hear of how JES has such a quick turnaround time and great customer experience really makes me want to find a beaten up, shot out M70 and send it to him.

I cant wait to see the targets from you!

I can see how that would get the creative juices moving. Neat build.

 

[SJB358]

Yeah, he could do up a 9.3 or 400 Whelen for me anyway!

Welcome to the family of the 35 Whelen :wink: we can't wait until you get her to the range!! Looking forward to a full report with photos. Just wondering what is the twist and what do you plan on using as a bullet?

Blessings,
Dan
